The Wait is Killin’ Us!

While fans (im)patiently wait for the full version of the Rainbow music vid and for FEE to be delivered to our mailboxes, some of us took this time to unleash our creativity. Hannedenmark shared another gorgeous photo edit of David showcased as our lead pic, and Canadianarchie went on a collage spree making these gorgeous David inspired collages:

VOTE While You Wait!

EH is finally on the Musiqtone poll! There was initially some confusion regarding the voting, but we got clarification directly from Musiqtone themselves! You may vote up to a maximum of 100 web votes + 50 mobile votes per day = 150 votes per day per fan. Some fans have reported that once you reach your maximum number of votes, the site will automatically prevent you from voting anymore that day. Our advice? Keep voting until you can’t vote anymore! Plus I had trouble keeping track of how many times I voted lol.

A gauntlet of sorts was thrown down pitting the Archies against the Swifties:

Well, there’s nothing we Archie Go-Getters like better than a CHALLENGE – especially one that includes voting for David! The poll runs until Monday, Nov. 26th – so come on Go-Getters, let’s get this DONE!

– Musiqtone Poll – click to VOTE!

Scroll down and the poll is on the right hand side. The poll will auto refresh until you’ve voted your max for the day – so keep voting!

4. Fave Breakthrough TV Performance - VOTE FOR OUR BOY!

“Loveteams” who didn’t make it to formal poll were included in a Wild Card poll.

Team JONYA was #1 in the Wild Card poll!

TEAM JONYA FTW!

2nd Place

Let’s get EH to #1 on MYX! And vote hourly on Chart Central!

Manila 2010

Our walk down memory lane takes us to November, 2010 when David visited Manila. He did a vlog letting us know about his travels in Asia and did a mini concert for fans at the Skydome of SM North EDSA.

“Uploaded by David Archuleta on Nov 16, 2010
In the Philippines! Had a really great time in Singapore and it’s been great seeing a lot of the Asian fans again. I’m sorry I don’t know how to make blogs faster and make more sense. This was even my 3rd attempt lol. There’s no hope for me.”

Mabuhay! (credit: David Archuleta)

Wishing you all a Super Saturday! Get your Thanksgiving shopping done and enjoy the lovely Fall weather! We’ll update the post if the Rainbow MV shows up today!

THANKS Kalei for the FABULOUS post! The pic edit by Hanne is WOW! LOVE all the collages…such talent and what a subject!Ben doing my David duties…..VOTING , VOTING< VOTING! Pinoy Archies looked like fun was had by all on the FEE launch! Thanks for the pics! THANKS too all for all the David goodies!!

Missionaries and members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, lending “Helping Hands” to victims of hurricane Sandy in Rockaways, NY. Thousands of members of the church continue to help people devistated by this tragic storm. http://vimeo.com/53357089

Hey Kalei, awesome Saturday post, thanks.
I’m so happy for David that he will be able to do concerts while in Chile, but sad about the strict no recordings rule. Oh well, we do have our dear Glayds to give us recaps, yey! Just hearing from her how he has improved as a performer and even improved his singing, just makes so excited for his return to his music career.

Happy 234th day!!! Thanks for the fabulous Sat. post, Kalei!
Hanne does it again….that top pic is so WOWZA!
Love the SF interview…..miss those TV guestings….the fans screaming…..& what an awesome Crush that was!
The Pinoy Archies are already having a blast partying for the RMV….waaah! I’m (patience, patience, patience)

Janel that is so great that the LDS church and missionaries helped victim, but this church was not the only one to give there helping hands. Sometimes I wish that religion was not a factor regarding David, sigh!!!

I’m excited for the Rainbow music video, but I’m kinda wondering why they didn’t release it before FEE came out? Now the Asian fans get to see it and we can’t yet, I don’t know, it’s a little odd. I hope we don’t have to wait until we get our FEE to see it, that would mean another 3 weeks of waiting! I still can’t order from CDWOW but I did order from Amazon. I guess the waiting continues, have a good day all!

cq of course the LDS church was not the only church that helped, nor does the video claim to be better than other churches that helped. Other churches and organizations are even mentioned in the video as helping them side by side. It was never a time to preach but a time to show charity which is the pure love of Christ. You can be a member of any religion or no religion at all and still be grateful and touched by the help that was given. This is a part of what missionaries do and if any disasters were to happen in Chile during David’s mission that would be part of what he does, to get out and help those in need.

janel-thanks so much for that video, it was very informative, it shows that our young people of all religions are there when needed, and can work well together no matter what. Isn’t that a part of missionaries, and what they do? JMO

Thank you Janel for clearing that up for me. I did get my feathers ruffled a bit, thank you for putting me in my place, maybe if I belonged to your church, I would be doing the same thing you do, it’s all good.
Ok bring on:
RAINBOW
RAINBOW
RAINBOW!, lol.

Kalei great post. I have a question, is the wild card love team contest over?
Sarahhazel, you know how i love all the links you bring over.
It looks like that pic of David is before he went on his mission, his hair is long for a missionary.
As far as the RAINBOW MV is concerned well we wait & wait. Its worth it anything for David.
I am going to go do all my David duties before i start my day and get so busy that i won’t have time. Will be lurking around and commenting as i do my housework. BBIAW

Hey Miss Vicki! So sorry for the loss of your friend & I hope your Sister n law’s life brings her more joy & happiness, feeling of safety & self-confidence, strength & independence, so glad she had you guys to help her Take Care!

I just finished doing all my David duties. It took me 1/2 hr to put in all my 100 votes on Musiqtone, but i got it done. I was trying to count but kept getting lost. last count i had was 90 but then when i tried to vote after that it wouldn’t let me vote, so i guess i must have reach 100 if not i know i at least have 90 votes in.

Well like Beth i also have housechores and errands to run so i will BBL as soon as i’m done. Yea!!! for Team Jonya!!!!on winning the wildcard. Lets move EH MV up on musiqtone. its a challenge, but that never stop the Archies.

Listening to some of David’s interview (2008) it’s amazing how much his speaking voice has deepen. Listening to the more current vlogs, he still has that boyish charm, but his voice is so much deeper and sexier. Imagining how much richer, deeper and fuller his voice will be when he returns is so exciting to me. I don’t think he will ever loose his boyish charm, but I’m so ready for David the man to come back to his singing career.

cq ha are you kidding.. was actually wondering if we would know who he is anymore!
no David voice for two years??
not to mention the SPanish accent!!
DANG NAB IT.. lol I am with you all.. is it 2014 yet!!??!!

Hummmm, I think I will start my countdown til David’s return on April 1, 2013, that way it will seem like less than a year to go, lol. I just hope that he still is being told as to how many loyal fans are waiting for his return…hoping that keeps him motivated and excited to return to his career.

If this video hasn’t been posted yet, check this out! David is in Jasmine Curtis-Smith’s video from months ago. The gifs that were posted by ohnopurple were from the video. Adorable. Hoping this will motivate everyone to vote for them! http://youtu.be/n7YEpxRD0x0

launch.. well there aren’t really any music stores left here.
we are spread out unless you count Deseret Books. all there is right now in hopes of one?
think David has to be around for a proper launch so maybe come 2014 something will pop up.

I just sent my DJ an e-mail thanking him for playing Davids songs now and conveyed to him about Davids “Christmas from the heart” Cd. on itunes. asked him if maybe he could play one one or two of Davids Xmas songs from his album. I shall pray and hope that he will. Will keep you informed if he does. He hasn’t stared playing Xmas music yet.

Linda- I’m back. We had a great Veal Parmingan dinner. It was so good. Woe, I’m going to look for that Pop Christmas album. That would be great to have around. Hope youe DJ can play David’s Christmas tunes. Hope DirecTV channel 801 Holidays & Happenings plays David’s songs too.

frio well.. I was tongue tied first time I met him real bad. think I had a look like I might die on my face? and well he laughed.
did get a couple of words out when I was walking away but it was funny.
happy to put a smile on his face.
ha at my expense.

Linda- Yikes, It gets cold there too. I’m like David, I dislike the cold. I think its because we are December babies. Brrrrr!! Don’t like the heat either. Crazy, I know. My body thermostat is way off. I love the spring but we don’t get that very much. Things are a changing.

I tried voting again but it just shows the leaderboard. Guess I did 100. I try counting at five incrums. Seems to work. Now I’m tired again. Think I’ll just sit back and watch T.V. and go to bed. Goodnight Linda, kimk and fiona. See you tomorrow. Goodnight sweet David.

Kalei, your post is a cornucopia of David goodies… and that pic up top IS A KILLA!!!!!!
hannedenmark, HIS EYES *CAN’T*LIE HAHAHA WHAT A FAB PIC, HONESTLY!!!!
canadianarchie, I’m lovin all the gorgeous collages and the collection of MOTAB pic is
gallery worth!!! Those NA teasers are making me ansy for that epic love triangle filled novela…25 episodes of pure heaven…
Put in my 100 votes on the Musiqtone poll today while my curser was having spasms all over the screen LOL Took me forever to finish though haha !!!

Thanks all for your concerns and support during my family’s trials with my sister-in-law’s separation from her husband and our friends death….Spent time in my car tonight getting all David Christmas music loaded into the CD player……Christmas David style….Ready Set Go……Miss Vicki

Hey kimk….I agree with your post at 8:08……..We are toast if David does songs like Barriers when he comes back in 2014….(the hand and hip movements….so so sexy)and he is not even trying to be….Barriers was one of my favorite songs on the debut album even though it is such a sad song……Miss Vicki

Idamae, someone at church told me about it. I tasted it and it was good, She said 1 box of chocolate cake and 1 can of diet coke is all she used. You can use other sodas too and other cake mixes. Will call her tomorrow and find out. Then will let you know.

Linda, sounds good…the less ingredients the better haha. Find out if you stir it by hand or in a mixer. My son keeps pestering me to make him a cake soooo I made him a funnel cake with frosting and all for his bday Heck, he can make this one all by himself

linda, I thought of you when I was at the hairdresser’s the other day. I used to tell him all about David cus he said he knew of him from Idol. I even gifted him CFTH and he actually played it while I was there. I try not to ovefrdo it cus I can get carried away haha. This time HE brought up the subject!!! He asked me… “How’s that musical idol of yours?” I almost fell out of my chair lol. I told him that he’s been gone for almost 8 months. He thought he was on tour or something. When he heard he was on a mission he was shocked and even more so when le learned that he planned all these goodies for his fans for while he was away. He admires his spirituality and he said that no one out there in the music business today compares to him. He’s a definite fan

Yup Idamae….David is so so good to us….I gifted CFTH to my beautician as well…but I have been going to her for over 22 years and she was the one who gave my son his 1st haircut. She knows all about my obsession with David. She still cuts my son’s hair and he will turn 21 in 3 weeks….She thinks my son is smart as a whip (he is a jock …..no musician) and she calls him her DAVID ARCHULETA….How cute is that!!!!!! Miss Vicki

Miss Vicki, how did your son fare getting his 1st haircut? My uncle, who used to be a barber, gave my son his 1st haircut. Unfortunately, it was traumatic for both of them. It took my son a LONG while before he sat still for my uncle.

Idamae……My son did great with his 1st haircut, but it has gone down hill from there…He needs a haircut so so badly right now. My mother gave him a mandate that he needs to het his cut before she will take him out lunch this week….Signing off for tonight……Miss Vicki

Just finished voting for the day on musiqtone. Now trying to figure out if I can vote any more on the NA ones. If I clear my cookies? Has anyone tried that? I don’t know why it’s not letting me vote anymore because I reached a quota perhaps? ….

BYUtv will air this popular Mormon Tabernacle Choir Christmas Concert with David Archuleta and Michael York a total of four times. (Also airing on Saturday, December 22nd at 6 p.m. and Tuesday, December 25th at 6 p.m. and at 9 p.m.)
